Corison 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
$134.99Corison 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
Cathy Corison makes one of our favorite "true" Napa Cabernets from great benchland vineyards between Rutherford and St. Helena. If you haven't tried her Corison Cabs yet do yourself a favor and discover them now.
95 Points Decanter: "Aged for 20 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new, the Corison 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is tart and racy, with a red-toned fruit profile complemented by saline-mineral intensity on the nose and palate. Aromas of leather, green olive, and cherrywood add complexity. The palate is immediately enveloped by multidimensional tannins with a pixelated quality, arresting the senses before giving way to sanguine fruit and vibrant minerality. The finish is layered with notes of blood orange, citrus peel, sandalwood, and loamy earth. A testament to the winery, a Napa Valley staple since it opened its doors in 1987, this wine showcases precision and depth in every sip. Drinking Window 2025-2038."
Robb Report "The 7 Best Cabernet Sauvignons from Napa Valley’s St. Helena AVA":
(The) 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of anise, cedar, tobacco leaf, and black currant. It is both elegant and restrained on the palate with flavors of dried herbs, violet, black raspberry, red plum, and black cherry. It’s drinking nicely right now but it wouldn’t hurt to lay a few bottles down for future enjoyment."
The result of a nearly perfect, long and cool ripening season (and oblivious to the Covid chaos swirling around it), the Corison 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon was picked and in the barn fully two and a half weeks before the Glass Fire broke out. Industrial-grade air filters kept smoke out of the winery as the wines went down to barrels. We are so grateful, and relieved, to present the lovely 2022.
